I cannot believe the arrogance of some people who think they know exactly who and what sort of music everyone should like and if it differs from theirs, then it is wrong, or a fix I thought technically G4 were very good, but their musical genre leaves me cold - does that make me stupid, tasteless or deaf .

If everybody liked the same artiste there would be no X factor - face up to it, more people liked Steve than (delete as necessary) G4, Tabby, Rowetta, etc. etc. Maybe in the months and years to come your favourite act will outsell everyone else, but at the moment Steve won - live with it

i am living with it

funnily enough, its the Steve fans that seem to be still going on and on and on and on about it

Not Necessarily True!

Steve won more "Votes" than anyone else and thus won "fair and square" by the program's rules. However we all know that supporters of all the acts have multi-voted like crazy, so there is no evidence that "More People Liked Steve".

Agree emzy. I am living with it too. Some Steve fans are trying to convince me that I should be bitter. One only has to look at the number of threads started on here today.

How about

The people who like Steve like him more that the people who like G4 like G4.

Either way, in a popularity contest such as this - he is more popular. (or least un popular if you prefer.)

....I`m loving what started out as a piece in The Sun today suddenly turned into an "official Press statement"

OH FOR GOD'S SAKE STOP - This is precisely what I was talking about. Please give it a rest, this really was a pleasant forum until Saturday night, surely it is time to move on.

oh i agree, but it was you that started this thread in the first place

I'm afraid it's only permitted to insult Steve on this forum nowadays. If anybody dares insult G4 they usually end up getting flamed. It's perfectly acceptable for being to bash Steve constantly but God forbid anybody dare to say anything "negative" about G4

I agrrees it is Stevies fans going on and on and on and on DID He lose no he won would we think so not listening to them bleeding lot. Sore losers why do they keep this up. I am a tabs fan, and I was gutted and I went off ftom ere for a while then I came back and I was fine but this is now not nice and I aint likin it here at all so I will go over to the pop idol site as they aint like this over there they are honest but not liek this lot here, I wonder what the problem with them it. HE WON just go out celebrate loosen up, chill man, it is a show for jezz sake not a life threatning illness.

I thinks I will buzz off now and hopes that this stops otherwise I just think peeps will get more pissed off and fgo just read the one aboce and now edittin as
that aint bleedin true it is the S fans here winding up the G4 fans it is pathetic. get on with yer lives keep posting up things like Sore losers why yer seen their cuts, it is SO pathetic CHILDISH are yer all under the age of 10 or something cos yer bleedin acting it

I think what has happen is that many Steve fans have gotten very p'd off with the nose rubbing from some of the G4 crew regarding "Better contract - fact"

Its just some redressing of the balance an I'm sure will blow over when some "Real" news is published.

Agree penny. The AOL piece is lifted directly from The Sun newspaper and its found its way around a lot of boards today. The Sun seems to be the Fountain Of All Knowledge all of a sudden. The article may indeed be true as other articles that have been mentioned in the tabloids and repeated on here may be true or not.

bit like the sony one and a half million contract

To be fair that was in the Daily Star too and we all know they are much more reliable than The Sun.

they are such classy papers

I AM SO PISSED OFF GROW UP look at yer, like kids in a playground, who gives a frigging toss what the contract is worth, you aint gettin any of it so why bleedin worry. I would wait and let the real announcements be made about figures for votes and money and contracts and in the meantime ALL SHUT THE F UP it is horrid here now never though this wud be like this ere, I am off back to a site I dont have to read this friggin crapp

I take it that a hug would be out of the question at this moment in time?

I'm sorry but people everyone has their own thougths and not everyone has to like steve, i am living with the fact that he one perfectly well, whilst steve supporters axpect eevryone to like him just because he won, well thats not going to happen.

The whole point in these forums are for people to debate, they will not start liking steve just because he won, so live with it.

There is such a thing as bad winners .
